Natural disaster. 288,000 people are evacuated! Entire cities in China are sinking! Flood in Hunan In recent weeks, heavy rainfall has triggered severe flooding and landslides in large swathes of southern China, damaging homes, crops and roads. More than 2,700 houses have collapsed or suffered severe damage, and 96,160 hectares of crops have been destroyed – heavy losses for a province that serves as a major rice-producing hub for China. Direct economic losses are estimated at more than $600 million, according to officials. Global warming has already made extreme rainfall events more intense in the eastern Asian region, which includes southern China. #Guangxi #China #hunan #storm #hail #rain #weather #hurricane #wind #flood #Nature #Naturaldisasters #news A natural disaster is a serious adverse event caused by natural processes on Earth; examples include floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, rain, hail, wildfire
